ABSTRACT
Little is known about the long-term drug costs associated with treating AIDS in developing countries.Brazil’s AIDS treatment program has been cited widely as the developing world’s largest and mostsuccessful AIDS treatment program. The program guarantees free access to highly active antiretroviraltherapy (HAART) for all people living with HIV/AIDS in need of treatment. Brazil produces non-patentedgeneric antiretroviral drugs (ARVs), procures many patented ARVs with negotiated price reductions, andrecently issued a compulsory license to import one patented ARV. In this study, we investigate the driversof recent ARV cost trends in Brazil through analysis of drug-specific prices and expenditures between 2001and 2005.
